Using Paul Gregg's howto setup Single UID based POP3 boxs.

I can't find what's wrong.

inetd.conf:
#Qmail pop daemon
pop-3 stream tcp nowait root /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup qmail-popup
mailer.famvi
d.com /var/qmail/bin/checkpoppasswd /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir &

( I've tried wtih and without the trailing '&', what's that for anyway?
)

My poppasswd entry looks like:
testid:DmIMm9e5Hc8ic:popuser:/var/qmail/popboxes/sadi-com/joe

My testid validates because syslog looks like:
Sep 27 17:31:06 mailer syslog: pop3checkpasswd: POP3 user testid :
/var/qmail/po
pboxes/sadi-com/joe logged in from unknown@ []

and virtual joe's directory looks like:
# l -aR /var/qmail/popboxes/sadi-com/joe
total 2
drwx------    3 popuser  qmail            96 Sep 27 17:40 .
drwx------    3 popuser  qmail            96 Sep 27 14:10 ..
-rw-------    1 popuser  qmail            11 Sep 27 16:43 .qmail
drwx------    2 popuser  qmail            96 Sep 27 16:44 Maildir

/var/qmail/popboxes/sadi-com/joe/Maildir:
total 0
drwx------    2 popuser  qmail            96 Sep 27 16:44 .
drwx------    3 popuser  qmail            96 Sep 27 17:40 ..

This is also SCO Unixware 7.0.1 should that matter.

I hope I'm missing the obvious. Does someone else see a problem?

Thanks in advance,
Bill
